Corvus Glaive’s Immunity

I got Corvus earlier this month and love using him, but I have never been able to figure his immunity out. He does not counter coldsnap at the beginning of the fight (not sure if intended or a bug) when fighting Iceman, but when I get knocked down, it seems to show what would appear as immunity being deactivated as if he had immunity? Can anyone clear this up for me. I have read and re read his description multiple times but no mention to when or how his immunity is active.

I got beat up just to show what I am talking about.8ri4twu9zxy3.png

Incase its a bug, I am on iPhone X Ios 11.3.1.

    His immunity is tied to his Glaive (weapon). When he has his 20 charges (orange icon with 20 in the 2nd pic), he is immune to death. Each hit received with 1% health will remove 4 of those charges, then once he hits 0 his immunity is removed and he dies.

    If he is knocked down, then he loses all charges and isn't immune anymore. This is why it's important to use a heavy or a special attack to end the fight when fighting against him.

    I don't believe he is immune to cold snap, but I could be wrong.

    He is. But question is when does his immunity take place? I understand the immortality abilty he has, but what about his Immunity?

    After further testing I was able to get Corvus to remove Coldsnap, but that was after he was knocked down from Iceman’s first special. Does he need to be knocked down inorder to activate Immunity?

    This is what I was referring to in my previous comment.

    Here is my question though, doesn’t Corvus start with Immunity? If getting knocked down interrupts it, why wouldn’t he have had it in the first place? Is it different bc technically Iceman didn’t apply it to me when the match up started? I just want to confirm how he works.

    @Make1David I believe Corvus Glaive needs his immunity to be immune to Coldsnap.

    The coldsnap icon will show at first but you wont take damage if you immunity up. When he purifies, that removes the coldsnap

    Read his abilities. It says it all right there.

    It clearly states that Corvus starts with immunity, the purple icon, and will not take damage from coldsnap, bleed, or shock though they can still be applied.

    Just carefully read the description. The ability itself is called Glaive’s Immunity but that’s it. Doesn’t mean he has a standard immunity. The description that follows is how that ability works. It doesn’t straight up say he is immune to coldsnap, bleed, and shock. It says he will not take damage from it so the debuff will still apply but if you notice he will not be taking damage ticks from it. The only way to remove the debuff altogether is get knocked down in which case the ability (Glaive’s Immunity) will refresh after a few seconds. Not at all trying to be a jerk but it takes a bit of reading comprehension as people see the ability name has Immunity in the title and they think of the standard Immunity.

    Ooooooohhhhh that was a huge help. I just had to pay more attention to the debuff in the fight. Thanks.
